==Plot==
==Plot==
When the episode starts {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{Tracey}} are traveling to [[Pallet Town]], they are all excited to be back, especially Tracey who is looking forward to meeting {{an|Professor Oak}} and can't wait to show him the many sketches he drew as a [[Pokémon watcher]].
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrive at [[Pallet Town]], where he and {{an|Misty}} are surprised to see {{an|Brock}} waiting for them in Ash's house. When they ask why he left [[Professor Ivy]], Brock abruptly falls to the ground shivering, and Misty believes she dumped him. {{Delia}} arrives home, and explains that she and [[Mimey]] found him a week ago, lying on the ground in a grassland, and took him home. Since then, Brock has been helping around the house, with Brock fighting over the chores with Mimey. Later, whilst discussing over dinner, {{Tracey}} insists on seeing {{an|Professor Oak}}. Ash is reminded of the [[GS Ball]] and then shows his mother his [[Winner's Trophy]], which she suggests she could use as a dumbbell.


When Ash arrives home, Misty and Ash are surprised to see {{an|Brock}} waiting for them in the house. They are confused as to why Brock had left [[Professor Ivy]] back on [[Valencia Island]]. He gives no reason as to why he left and when Ash and Misty mention Professor Ivy, Brock falls to the ground shivering saying "Don't mention that name..." ominously. Misty theorizes that she dumped him. [[Delia Ketchum|Mrs. Ketchum]] arrives home and explains how Brock came here: She and [[Mimey]] found him on the ground in a grassland and took him home once she realizes who he was. Since then Brock has been helping around the house, with Brock fighting over the chores with Mimey.
Ash, {{AP|Pikachu}}, Misty, Tracey, and Brock travel to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]], with {{TRT}} watching from a distance. Ash is welcomed to the house by {{AP|Muk}}, who is crushing Oak under his weight. Tracey ignores the situation and asks to show Oak his sketches. Ash hands Oak the GS Ball and he puts it away to examine it later. Oak then shows them around the Laboratory, and Ash sends his {{AP|Tauros}} out to rejoin the herd before encountering his other Pokémon, {{AP|Snorlax}} and {{AP|Kingler}}. Over some cups of tea, Oak begins to review Tracey's sketches. As Tracey nervously awaits Oak's approval, he is interrupted by {{MTR}} activating a circus net that engulfs the Laboratory. Meanwhile, {{an|Jigglypuff}} appears and tries to go through the net, though it cannot.


Whilst discussing dinner, Tracey insists on seeing Professor Oak. Ash is reminded of the [[GS Ball]] and shows Mrs. Ketchum his trophy, which she suggests she could use as a dumbbell.
Team Rocket performs their {{motto}} while doing a circus act. Just as Ash is about to call out {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, he notices Muk's insistence and sends it out instead. Jessie sends out {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}}, but Muk ignores Lickitung and goes on to smother Jessie. James sends out {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, which Muk hugs as well. James tries his luck with {{m|Razor Leaf}}, but it fails, and Muk deflects the leaves. Victreebel begins to swallow Muk, but soon spits it out in disgust. Lickitung slobbers all over Muk with its tongue, but it does nothing.


Ash, {{AP|Pikachu}}, Misty, Tracey and Brock travel to Professor Oak's laboratory with {{TRT}} watching from a distance. Ash is welcomed to the house by his {{AP|Muk}} who is crushing Professor Oak under his weight. Tracey ignores the situation and asks to show Professor Oak his sketches.
James commands Victreebel to use {{m|Sleep Powder}} on Muk, which works, much to Ash's surprise. Ash is about to call out {{AP|Squirtle}} and Bulbasaur, but Team Rocket then throws rings around him and the others, which immobilize them. A [[Team Rocket's mechas|Super Sucker]] then proceeds to suck all of the lab's [[Poké Ball]]s and Tracey's sketchbooks. Meowth asks again why Brock came back, though he doesn't give an answer. The last Ball sucked in is the GS Ball, but then, a rip in the tent appears, caused by a {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s {{p|Nidoqueen}}. Team Rocket's tent and Jigglypuff are sent flying into the distance. The [[Team Rocket's mechas|Meowth Balloon]] falls to the ground, releasing every Poké Ball inside. The Trainer turns out to be {{Gary}}, and his Nidoqueen attacks Lickitung by grabbing its tongue and swinging it into Team Rocket. Nidoqueen then sends Victreebel flying into Team Rocket with a {{m|Mega Punch}}. Jessie throws Meowth into the {{pkmn|battle}}; he tries using {{m|Scratch}}, but his claws break from Nidoqueen's armored body. Gary tells his Nidoqueen to use {{m|Strength}}, hurling Team Rocket into the air and sending them blasting off again.


Ash hands Professor Oak the GS Ball and he puts it away to examine it later. Professor Oak then shows them around the Laboratory. Tracey sketches every {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} he sees and shows Professor Oak his sketches. Tracey nervously awaits Oaks approval, though he whispers to Brock that he "hasn't seen all the sketches so far but...". He is interrupted by {{MTR}} activating a circus net that engulfs the Laboratory. Meanwhile {{an|Jigglypuff}} appears and tries to go through the net though it can't.
Gary has Nidoqueen use its horn to free everyone. He then greets his grandfather, and everyone except for Ash admires his well-trained Nidoqueen. Ash tries to brag about his [[Orange League]] Winner's Trophy; Gary congratulates him but notes that it didn't help him defeat Team Rocket. Soon enough, Ash and Gary prepare for a battle to prove who has become the better Trainer over the past months.
 
Inside the net, Team Rocket are in and perform the {{motto}} while doing a circus act. They try to steal Pikachu, but Ash sends out his Muk to attack {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}}. Muk ignores the Lickitung and goes on to hug Jessie. James sends out his {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, which again Muk hugs. James tries his luck with {{m|Razor Leaf}} but it "just didn't cut it." as said in the episode. Victreebel tries to swallow Ash's Muk but it uses {{m|Poison Gas}} before it can use {{m|PoisonPowder}}. Lickitung slobbers all over Muk with its tongue but it does nothing.
 
James commands Victreebel to use {{m|Sleep Powder}} on Muk which works, much to Ash's surprise. Ash switches to {{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Bulbasaur}}. Team Rocket then throws rings around Ash, Misty, Pikachu, Professor Oak, Brock and Tracey which stops them from moving. A [[Team Rocket's mechas|Super Sucker]] then proceeds to suck in every [[Poké Ball]] that are in the Laboratory, including Tracey's Sketchbooks. Meowth asks again why Brock came back, though he doesn't give an answer. The last ball sucked in is the GS Ball, but then a rip in the tent appears, caused by a mysterious man and his {{p|Nidoqueen}}. [[Team Rocket's mechas|The Meowth Balloon]] falls to the ground, releasing every Poké Ball in it.
 
The mysterious man turns out to be {{Gary}} and the Nidoqueen attacks Lickitung by grabbing its tongue and swinging it into Team Rocket. Meowth tries using {{m|Scratch}} but it doesn't work, only breaking his claws. Gary tells his Nidoqueen to strike back, hurling Team Rocket into the air.  
 
Ash and Gary start a battle to prove who has become the better Trainer over the past months.

* This episode claims that this is the first time that Tracey has ever met {{an|Professor Oak}} or {{Delia}}.

Blurb

Ash returns home, where he is pleasantly surprised by an old friend. Unfortunately he faces a new trial, as Team Rocket has besieged the famous Oak Laboratory and captured all the Poké Balls there.

Plot

Ash and his friends arrive at Pallet Town, where he and Misty are surprised to see Brock waiting for them in Ash's house. When they ask why he left Professor Ivy, Brock abruptly falls to the ground shivering, and Misty believes she dumped him. Delia arrives home, and explains that she and Mimey found him a week ago, lying on the ground in a grassland, and took him home. Since then, Brock has been helping around the house, with Brock fighting over the chores with Mimey. Later, whilst discussing over dinner, Tracey insists on seeing Professor Oak. Ash is reminded of the GS Ball and then shows his mother his Winner's Trophy, which she suggests she could use as a dumbbell.

Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Tracey, and Brock travel to Professor Oak's Laboratory, with Team Rocket watching from a distance. Ash is welcomed to the house by Muk, who is crushing Oak under his weight. Tracey ignores the situation and asks to show Oak his sketches. Ash hands Oak the GS Ball and he puts it away to examine it later. Oak then shows them around the Laboratory, and Ash sends his Tauros out to rejoin the herd before encountering his other Pokémon, Snorlax and Kingler. Over some cups of tea, Oak begins to review Tracey's sketches. As Tracey nervously awaits Oak's approval, he is interrupted by Meowth activating a circus net that engulfs the Laboratory. Meanwhile, Jigglypuff appears and tries to go through the net, though it cannot.

Team Rocket performs their motto while doing a circus act. Just as Ash is about to call out Bulbasaur, he notices Muk's insistence and sends it out instead. Jessie sends out Lickitung, but Muk ignores Lickitung and goes on to smother Jessie. James sends out Victreebel, which Muk hugs as well. James tries his luck with Razor Leaf, but it fails, and Muk deflects the leaves. Victreebel begins to swallow Muk, but soon spits it out in disgust. Lickitung slobbers all over Muk with its tongue, but it does nothing.

James commands Victreebel to use Sleep Powder on Muk, which works, much to Ash's surprise. Ash is about to call out Squirtle and Bulbasaur, but Team Rocket then throws rings around him and the others, which immobilize them. A Super Sucker then proceeds to suck all of the lab's Poké Balls and Tracey's sketchbooks. Meowth asks again why Brock came back, though he doesn't give an answer. The last Ball sucked in is the GS Ball, but then, a rip in the tent appears, caused by a Trainer's Nidoqueen. Team Rocket's tent and Jigglypuff are sent flying into the distance. The Meowth Balloon falls to the ground, releasing every Poké Ball inside. The Trainer turns out to be Gary, and his Nidoqueen attacks Lickitung by grabbing its tongue and swinging it into Team Rocket. Nidoqueen then sends Victreebel flying into Team Rocket with a Mega Punch. Jessie throws Meowth into the battle; he tries using Scratch, but his claws break from Nidoqueen's armored body. Gary tells his Nidoqueen to use Strength, hurling Team Rocket into the air and sending them blasting off again.

Gary has Nidoqueen use its horn to free everyone. He then greets his grandfather, and everyone except for Ash admires his well-trained Nidoqueen. Ash tries to brag about his Orange League Winner's Trophy; Gary congratulates him but notes that it didn't help him defeat Team Rocket. Soon enough, Ash and Gary prepare for a battle to prove who has become the better Trainer over the past months.

Trivia

  • This episode's dub title is a reference to the phrase "a tense situation".
  • The book Go West, Young Ash is based on this episode.

Errors

  • This episode claims that this is the first time that Tracey has ever met Professor Oak or Delia. However, this contradicts The Power of One, where Professor Oak, Delia, and Professor Ivy travel to Shamouti Island and meet up with Ash, Misty, and Tracey himself at the end of the movie. This also contradicts The Lost Lapras, since Tracey saw Oak on the phone monitor, even going as far as to introduce himself as "Tracey Sketchit". He also had a full conversation with him about Scyther in Tracey Gets Bugged, although in those cases, it could be dismissed since he didn't meet him in person.
  • When Ash sends out his Tauros, it is sent out from a regular Poké Ball, instead of the Safari Ball it was captured in.
  • In one scene, Delia calls Tracey "Miss Tracey", even though Tracey is male.

Dub edits

  • Pikachu's Jukebox: My Best Friends
  • In the scene where Delia is accidentally trampling Brock, she does not recognize him until he looks up. In the original version, she recognizes Brock before he looks up.

  • In the dub, James orders Victreebel to use Poison Powder while attacking Muk, but in the original version, he didn't give an attack order.
  • In the dub, Ash commands Muk to use Poison Gas on Victreebel. In the original Japanese version, Ash simply calls Muk by its name.
